Meet Emma

Meet Emma! A charming eleven-year-old Basenji/American Pitbull Terrier mix from Broomall, PA, whose golden coat with white accents is as warm and inviting as her personality. This lovely senior lady is a bundle of joy who thrives on human connection and delights in spending time with her favorite people. Whether it’s a leisurely walk around the neighborhood or an adventurous trip to the dog park, Emma is always ready to get outside and enjoy the world around her! Emma has a playful spirit and a particular fondness for chew toys, which keep her happily occupied when she's not out exploring. She's well-trained and knows commands like "sit," "lay down," and "come," making her a well-behaved and obedient companion. Her friendly demeanor extends to other dogs, and she generally gets along well with her canine peers. Emma is also great with young children, but she’s a little more reserved around babies, so she would thrive best in a home without infants. At a medium size and weighing around forty-five pounds, Emma is the perfect fit for a family who enjoys an active lifestyle but also appreciates the value of a good cuddle session! She’s independent yet affectionate, loving yet composed, making her the ideal companion for a family who understands the balance between giving her space and showering her with love. Emma is house-trained, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations. While she has a form of lupus, she currently doesn’t require any medication and is doing wonderfully! She’s a sturdy girl who just needs a caring and affectionate family that will give her the attention she craves. Her favorite routine is pretty straightforward—she needs to go out three to four times a day and enjoys her meals at regular intervals. She’s totally fine being left alone for short periods, making her a low-maintenance addition to the right home. Great news for potential adopters, Emma’s adoption fee has been sponsored by the family! Could you be the forever home Emma needs? If you’re ready to welcome this sweet and spirited dog into your heart and home, Emma can’t wait to meet you!  Are you ready for the endless joy and companionship she brings? Contact us at [email protected] today!
